Review # 1 was written on 2012-12-22 00:00:00 Ashley Polumbo I can't say that I've read every word of this, but it will be a book I revisit time and time again as I do genealogical research. It's about my hometown area and so interesting to me. Kind of like the bible for history in Putnam County.

Review # 2 was written on 2021-05-04 00:00:00 Randy Wilcox Alongside The Lemon Tree and a biography of Abe Lincoln published in 1925 based on a film (yes) and rife with many verbatim speeches and examples of his wit, I am reading this world history. This is a coffee type book aimed at children in my opinion, due to its lush illustrations and photographs. It works for me as I try to make sense of "it all." Seems as though humanity has not progressed too far as I suspected. I see that change takes place so slowly and we have not actually learned that much as a species. I am looking for the connectors, the commonalities in the worlds previous times to see where we might be heading and what the best role is to play to give the most of myself at this time. This book is satisfying from that point of view, although there are definite editorial slants that are particularly notable when various religions are discussed. Still the factual information is interesting and useful, and I keep on reading it as though it were a novel rather than a reference book.
